Take this with a grain of salt; if you read a few more articles it's pretty apparent that the guy is a crank. There's some hilarious stuff there, though.

- Mapou 18y agoCrank or not, his stuff on parallel programming makes sense.
- hugh 18y agoIt could really use some examples of what the hell he's talking about. Wide ranging examples, too. I'm sure he could come up with one or two, but can he come up with a whole bunch, which span a reasonably wide swath of algorithm space? Show me how to, say, invert a matrix, which is a possible-yet-annoyingly-hard problem to parallelize ordinarily, and I'll take it seriously.
- jobeemar 18y agoHe has a parallel quicksort example on his "relevant links" section. He seems to be saying that software should work pretty much like hardware. http://www.rebelscience.org/Cosas/quicksort.htm http://www.rebelscience.org/Cosas/quicksort.htm
